Why is this defaulting to y? New drivers should not default to enabled
unless they are replacing some already pre-existing functionality.
Ditto for the other camera driver.

The ov564x sensors are required for the SabreSD and SabreLite/Nitrogen
reference boards (if VIDEO_IMX_CAMERA is enabled that is). But they're not
required for other platforms, so you're right I shouldn't have defaulted these
to yes. Fixed.
